The Cohen Report: Allen at 18 months

Our big boy is getting longer and leaner! Again! (He still eats like it's going out of style...)

Length: 33.5 inches (79th percentile), up from 32.5 inches at 16 months
Weight: 26 pounds, 11 ounces (60th percentile), up from 25 pounds, 4 ounces at 16 months
Head circumference: 48 cm, unchanged (That may be off, because he was really wiggly. He acted like he was getting tortured, not measured. All this, and he didn't even have any shots!)

Once again, Dr. Cohen says he looks great. He talked about accidental death (cheerful!) and tantrums (not a problem!) and discipline (we didn't tell him that we thunk our toddlers on the head when they need it).

What about accidental death??

Something about how only teenagers are more likely than toddlers to die an accidental death. Falls, poisoning, you name it.
